民族植物学是典型的跨学科学科，涉及植物的知识，用途及其生态，文化和社会意义上的生态。MSc是一项为期12个月的强化课程。在头六个月中，您将学习八个课程模块，然后在接下来的六个月中进行一个项目并撰写论文。民族植物学是研究人类和植物之间在历史和跨文化方面的相互关系，特别是植物在人类文化和实践中的作用，人类如何使用和修饰植物以及它们如何在知识体系中代表植物。
Ethnobotany is the study of the interrelationship between people and plants, historically and cross-culturally. Explore the role of plants in human culture and practices, how humans have used and modified plants, and how they represent them in their systems of knowledge. Our biocultural approach to Ethnobotany will allow you discover the relationship between the biology of plants and the culture of humans that think about them and use them. Our programme, with links to the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew, Botanical Gardens Conservation International, The Eden Project and The Medway School of Pharmacy is the first of its kind in the world and the only graduate course in Europe.
